Energy analysis - we're hosed

Great and pessimistic post on energy alternatives, reposted by Mark Kleiman. I think it's overly down on wind power which has some real if limited promise. Technology investment in solar could solve a lot of our problems, although I expect it will always be expensive. As compared to the consequences of alternatives, however, solar's expense could be worth the price.

As an analysis of the Bush energy policy, it's pretty devastating.
